Cal. Civ. Code § 32-31-5-4
Sec. 4. Unless otherwise provided by a written rental
agreement between a landlord and tenant, a landlord shall give the
tenant at least thirty (30) days written notice before modifying the
rental agreement.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Under Indiana Code § 32-31-5-4, a landlord generally must provide a tenant with at least 30 days of written notice before making any changes to the terms of a rental agreement. This default rule applies when the written rental agreement itself does not specify a different notice procedure. The provision establishes a baseline protection that can be altered only by mutual written agreement between the parties.

For Property Managers

Ind. Code § 32-31-5-4 sets a default requirement that compliant landlords deliver written notice of any proposed rental agreement modification at least 30 days before the change takes effect. Operators who wish to use a different notice period or method typically address that explicitly in the written rental agreement itself. Maintaining clear records of when and how notices are delivered helps demonstrate compliance with this provision.

For Tenants

Indiana Code § 32-31-5-4 gives tenants the right to at least 30 days' written notice before a landlord can modify the terms of a rental agreement, unless the written lease specifies otherwise. If a landlord attempts to impose a change without providing the required notice, a tenant may be able to raise that failure as a defense in a dispute or seek guidance from a local tenant-rights organization. Reviewing the written rental agreement is a useful first step to understand whether a different notice arrangement has been agreed upon.
